CLEVELAND kidnapper Ariel Castro has been found hanging dead in his state prison cell.

Ohio Rehabilitation and Correction officials said convicted kidnapper Castro was found in his prison cell at the Correctional Reception Centre in Orient, Ohio at about 9:20pm local time.

Prison medical staff performed CPR, and Castro was transported to the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Centre. He was pronounced dead at 10:52pm.

Castro was sentenced to life in prison for holding three women - Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michele Knight - in Cleveland for more than a decade and repeatedly raping them.

Do you prefer them to be just labelled as evil?

[poddster]

Az don't you think that evil deeds deserve an evil label?

[donnashuggy]

By simply saying that he was sick, do you think that absolves him from the evil deeds and excuses his behaviour?

No

No poddy, I would not feel any justice, the man was SICK

Hurting and making him suffer solves nothing and it would not make me feel any better to retaliate.

I am not against his punishment at all.

i am tired of that old excuse of 'oh he was sick'

if he was truly sick and truly didn't know what he was doing was wrong he would not have kept it hidden all that time.

he knew - he just didn't care.

his wants were all that mattered to him - and that is NOT an illness

I didn't say any of those things pepe, he obviously knew what he was doing, that doesn't mean he wasn't sick

A well person would not do those things, I wasn't suggesting it as an excuse

Stick pins in him if it makes you feel better, I don't think that kind of therapy works.

There isn't much point Podd........... nothing changes with a label. (I was making no judgement, just asking)

I am usually fascinated by trying to understand what makes people choose to do the things they do.  This time, I can't bring myself to even read about it.

So Donna if you think that he has no excuse and should not be absolved of his evil crime than punishment is due.

He chose to do the deeds that he did, those deeds are not acceptable by either the law or by society and are below any standard of normality. Yet you and others want to treat tis subhuman individual on an even par with human behaviour.

One of the problems of modern society is that it does not do enough to prevent unacceptable social behaviour  by deterring such behaviour thereby making it more acceptable.

Just look back on some recent cases like the ABC reporter's rape and murder.

Events are increasing at an alarming rate.

I don't believe this is so.

Castro was doing this for a long time, not recent behaviour.

sticking pins in him is not what anyone wanted really - i think people just wanted him to serve his sentence, the consequences of the actions he willfully took

Nite everyone

Poddy. Please don't write things and say things I did not write
